Fear Grips Gov.wike Over Alleged Plot To Declare Emergency Rule In Rivers State by Upritman(m): 9:23am On May 20, 2020
Serious fears have enveloped the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, over an alleged plot by some forces in Abuja to instigate the Federal Government to declare a state of emergency in Rivers State.

Gov.Wike raised the alarm in a statement signed by the Rivers State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Paulinus Nsirim on Tuesday night.

"The Rivers State Government has uncovered plans by some citizens of the State who reside in Abuja to cause a breakdown of law and order in order to declare a State of Emergency," the statement read in part.

According to the statement, this renewed attempt is coming after previous ones failed because of God's intervention.

The statement further alleged that those behind the state of emergency plot are persons from Rivers State with 2023 political ambitions who want to use the Rivers State fight against COVID-19 to create a crisis as if the State is at war with the Federal Government.

"These persons whose attempts to declare State of Emergency in the State since 2015 have never succeeded because of God's intervention.

They did everything within their powers to ensure that the 2019 Governorship Election results were not announced but also failed.

As the build up for the 2023 elections and jostle for Presidential and Vice-Presidential tickets is gathering momentum, they want to use COVID-19 to create a crisis as if the State is at war with the Federal Government.

They have decided to create unnecessary tension as if indigenes of Ahoada, Eleme and Port Harcourt are fighting with Northerners not to carry out their legitimate businesses.

People forget history quickly. Since 2015, there have farmers/herdsmen clashes in Nasarrawa, Plateau, Taraba, Ebonyi, Cross River, Kaduna, Yobe and Bornu States.

Throughout this COVID-19 pandemic, States like Enugu, Lagos, Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Edo and Kaduna States have been intercepting lorries carrying human beings instead of foodstuffs.

This is the same thing that the Rivers State Government is doing to protect the State from COVID-19."

Gov.Wike lamented that instead of those He called "Abuja Politicians" to work with him for the good of Rivers People, they are plotting to acquire power through the backdoor.

"Bandits have been killing innocent people in Sokoto, Katsina, Zamfara and Kaduna States and indigenes of these States no matter their political differences are working together to protect their States.

But here in Rivers State, instead of supporting our efforts, these Abuja politicians are busy looking for a State of Emergency because they want to acquire power."

Gov.Wike said while He is working hard to protect lives of the people against the Covid-19, some APC leaders in Rivers State are busy politicising the Covid-19 war.

" Our fight against COVID-19 is to protect the lives of everyone living and doing business in the State.

We are aware that some shameless politicians are playing politics with COVID-19.

No wonder one of the respected chieftains of the All Progressives Congress (APC) had to expose their plan to use COVID-19 to launch into the politics of the State.

This is what we see in the lives of ungodly, dangerous and power hungry people who claim to love the State.

After their clandestine meetings they have voted huge sums of money to entice and recruit gullible persons to carry out their plan."

The Governor urged Rivers People to resist the "Abuja Politicians" and their evil plots against the state adding that God will ensure they are defeated as usual.

"All patriotic Rivers State indigenes are hereby placed on alert to resist the devilish plans of these unpatriotic elements who connive with enemies of the State to cause confusion.

As a State, we have always defeated these sadists and with God on our side, we shall overcome them."

Bittertruth Media recalls that Gov.Wike has been having series of unending loggerheads with the Federal Government and her agencies. The rivalry however seems to have intensified with the Covid-19 pandemic and the Rivers State's efforts to curtail its spread.

Meanwhile, the Federal Government was yet to react to the allegation of plotting to declare an emergency rule in Rivers State.

No need for a fear Mr.Wike. A state of emergency is infact a good way to prove ur powers. I mean you could use that opportunity to show the F.G how powerful u are, for it seems to me that the recent show and outbursts of ur power aren't enough. U could make more name for urself unno? Hope I'm not sounding sarcastic?

Our elders says: The strenght of a man is not determined in a house fight, but in war.

No sir!
Wike did not frustrate anyone, he simply put everyone on a stand still as ot should be during a pandemic.

Do u know that other south south states without lockdown has seen countless influx of northern herdsmen.

Do u know that there's more to what Gov. Wike is fighting with the imposed lockdown? Do u think he's enjoying the criticism?

Wike should be commended except d FG is complicit in d whole issue. It was d FG that endorsed interstate lockdown and restriction of movt yet ppl with defined mission are seen daily jampacked like sardines besides goods travelling down South from d north traversing several states with d security agents collecting money. Wike only offence was looking FG eye ball to eye ball and expose how they are aiding and abetting d sabotage of their own directive.

I don't believe the 'State of emergency' news.
However, Ameachi did not send him to start arresting pilots and strategic oil workers.
